Hard To Say

The most important things are the hardest to say....
This is at the epicenter of all truth.
Reality checks clean the clutter away. 
All will experience love and loss of some kind in their lifetime. It will occur many times.
Can you hear your heart as you look into the eyes of trust?
Once you do, the clouds will cushion your free fall.
Fear will make you heavy and you will hit hard.  But, trust will allow your wings to soar and discover freedom!
"I love you" is the most wanted and feared phrase.

Hanging Out

Boaters And Beer Floaters
Hanging out by the dock
Tatooed women swaying to the music
It's half past five o'clock

I sip my bad habit
As the waitress brings your beer
Girls swinging with their daddy
To the rhythm on the pier

Beer buzzing like bees
to the warm salt breeze
My mind is in the moment
There's no time quite like these

She picks up found sunglasses
And perches them on her face
Looking up at the bright sun
Never want to leave this place
